Eh, who cares if it's aimed at teens. It's actually very well done, and I think it's well acted. So far, I like the plot and the characters. Last night's episode was so good! I would like to read the books, I didn't realize there were any until about two weeks ago. Right now I'm reading Catcher in the Rye, but maybe when I'm done with that, I'll pick those up to kinda "take a break" from hard reads.
